SOLUTION OF ALGEBRAIC AND TRANSCENDENTAL
EQUATIONS
• Consider the equation of the form f(x)=0.
• If f(x) is a quadratic, cubic or biquadratic expression
then algebraic formulae are available for expressing
the roots.
• But when f(x) is a polynomial of higher degree or an
expression involving transcendental functions e.g., 1
+ cos x – 5x, x tan x – cosh x, e-x – sin x etc.,
algebraic methods are not available.
In order to solve these type of equations following methods exist:
• DIRECTIVE METHODS:
The methods which are used to find solutions of given equations in the
direct process is called as directive methods.
Example: remainder theorem, Factorization method etc
Note:
By using Directive Methods, it is possible to find exact solutions of the given
equation.
• ITERATIVE METHODS (INDIRECT METHODS):
The methods which are used to find solutions of the given equation in some
indirect process is called as Iterative Methods
Note:
By using Iterative methods, it is possible to find approximate solution of
the given equation and also it is possible to find single solution of the
given equation at the same time.
Methods
The bisection method in mathematics is a root finding method which
repeatedly bisects an interval and then selects a subinterval in
which a root must lie for further processing.
It is a very simple and robust method, but it is also relatively slow.
Because of this, it is often used to obtain a rough approximation to
a solution which is then used as a starting point for more rapidly
converging methods .
Bisection Method
Step 1: Choose two approximations A
and B (B>A) such that
f(A)*f(B)<0
Step 2: Evaluate the midpoint C of [A,B]
given by
C=(A+B)/2
• Step 3: If f(C)*f(B)<0 then rename B & C
as A &
B. If not rename of C as B .
Then apply the formula of Step
2.
• Step 4:Stop evolution when the
different of two successive values of C
obtained from Step 2 is numerically less
than E, the prescribed accuracy

REGULA FALSI METHOD
• This is the oldest method for finding the real roots of a
numerical equation.
• It is sometimes known as method of linear interpolation.
 Locate the interval (a, b) in which the root lies.
 First Approximation to the root
 Locate the next interval (a, X0) or ( X0, b ) in which root lies.
 Repeat the process until the root converges.
